Sun, 06 Jan 2013 07:47:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=94519#comment-2770110remember pebble wanted to make 100k worth of watches and start their business, we sort of drove them to play with the big boys in a 10mill business model. expected growing pains should have been a no brainer. ouya on the other hand came from big industry and shrunk big industry models down. hence delays for pebble and i expect a clean launch for ouya. Plus pebble is debuting FINAL at CES.

Sat, 05 Jan 2013 21:43:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=94519#comment-2770071True, I too have invested into OUYA. I just dont understand why people are so mad another company has joined into the Android Game consul world.

Sat, 05 Jan 2013 21:37:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=94519#comment-2770070This is junk. People will “kickstart” anything.

This is an Android-on-a-stick (done to death…search Amazon…they’re around $50-$60 bucks) with a d-pad (because according to their kick-starter page they don’t like clunky controllers??)

I’m with Evan on this one. OUYA at least tries to be different.

blacming marketing is like saying The Thunderbolt’s battery would’ve not been reviewed as crap worked if people knew it upfront. !

Sat, 05 Jan 2013 17:04:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=94519#comment-2770035I wonder if they think everyone will simply run old emulators on it or something.
It’s ain’t gonna run Horn, that’s for sure.

Sat, 05 Jan 2013 08:28:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=94519#comment-2769985Sounds like they need to upload a youtube video link to their kickstarter that explains their business model and time frame and resources they already have or will need. That way you know they have a plan and model already made ready to go and not flying by the seat of their pants.

I don’t think they’ve thought out there business plans well enough…to handle even a small distribution channel.

Fri, 04 Jan 2013 23:31:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=94519#comment-2769865You can almost diy something along the lines of this with the chinese Android sticks that are already available for about $50 and a USB controller.

This thing is seriously underspecced… even a casual gaming device, IMHO.

Fri, 04 Jan 2013 23:18:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=94519#comment-2769849So…only 8GB of flash? Aren’t some of the games out today pretty big? How much will 8Gb really get you?

Granted, for $69 (hehehehe) it would be kewl to just play with….. but I think the Ouya will be better just because of size. They will be able to really leverage the power of the processors and get better performance because they are able to have a larger form factor and separate power source.

I will say it is nice that it is more portable, but there is no guarantee that anywhere you go will have a big screen tv with hdmi. Having a phone or Tablet would suffice for “travel”.
